Double Pink (Triple Max)...

This is a story about how I wore white on white on white today...something that, with three kiddos, I don't have the opportunity to do too often.  Monochromatic navy?  All the time.  Grey with grey?  All day.  And it inspired me to look for a less neutral way to wear all one color.

But. of course, I got distracted on Pinterest, and ended up pinning 42,000 other things.  Which, in turn, led me to the scouring of Etsy for various baubles and tchotchkes.  Alas, I finally made it back to this pretty, little cake (why, yes, I do become slightly ADHD on Pinterest!).  In any case, it contained three of my favorite things...peonies, ombre and PINK!  I can say, with honesty, that I've never attempted the all pink ensemble.  Mostly, I'm guessing, because it seems like it would be unavoidable to look costumey.  Not the case...as evidenced in the inspo photos below.

This is one of those pictures that sends me into a frenzy.  Since I have never seen any sweater fitting this description, and it is (obviously) perfection in every way, I will be searching high and low to find it's match.  Like. for. ever.  Until I find it.  Love the pale blush shade, the oversized stitch and the slouchy fit.  It is unbelievably amazing with this palest shell pencil skirt.

J'adore!

This look follows the same rule of start with a slouchy sweater...a trend that I've really absorbed, of late.  It is surprisingly chic.  Love this colorblock sweater with bubblegum pink jeans.  And the glasses, oh the glasses!

So, pink on pink on pink on pink is in the works.  I will tread carefully, as should you, so as not to look like a circus act!

The Mini July...

Who doesn't love a gaggle of kiddies?  Particularly when they're dressed this adorably!  Love all the neon accents...and tassels?  I think we all know how I feel about the tassel!  So pretty!

Neutrals with punch!  And this borrowed from Mommy print is perfect on this embroidered tunic.  Remember, it's available in a tunic and dress for the mommies...if you're into that kind of thing.  Which I am.  Got to coordinate!

This navy beach ball print is totally adorbs!  And, although purple is the new favorite color in my house, those ombre shorts also come in the perfect hot pink.  And that cute little football tee...also available in grey, with gold stripes.  Love!

Can't forget about our cutie boys.  Never bored equals my new favorite tee...except, of course, the Donald Robertson collaboration (already backordered til June!).  More bold colors, and the most perfect little anchor hoodie!

And, let's face it...there is nothing better to pair with all these perfect mini outfits, than Little Lux jewels by Gunner and Lux!  Check them out...they might have the most adorable creative director in the history of time!

I haven't forgotten you...

Absence makes the heart grow fonder, right?  It's hard to believe that I've been back from vacation for two weeks already!  The tropical weather seems like a distant memory...we're all about the rain, here in the Northeast.  Thankfully, the J.Crew July delivery has arrived...to remind us that summer is, in fact, just around the corner!  

And, they've brought a favorite color palette to play...adore navy and orange together!  Fantastic on yet another beautiful, bold, tropical print!  Looks perfect paired with stripes.

Of course, I am acutely aware, as a stylist, that many fear this bold shade.  But, I am here to let you in on a little secret...orange is the most universally flattering color in existence.  You know what that means?  It looks good on you...with or without the summer glow!  If you're still on the fence, try it out on a bottom.  Lots of great separates in this print!  And, this chambray beach pant?  Scoop.  it.  up.  It nearly sold out the first day!  Great fit.  Lightweight.  Super comfy.

Check.  Check.  Check.

The easiest investment in the color is a scarf.  Loving it paired with a go to outfit for me, all season long.  Navy beach sweater, white shorts, tan sandals.  Always works!

Tons of great sandy shades of sandals...like this amazing lace up pair, that I know I've mentioned before!  More great graphic tees to come...like this sunset palm!

Love that J.Crew has carried through the clean, black and white palette for the last few months.  Makes getting dressed a breeze!  These embroidered shorts, though...you probably need them.  And I'm prepared to wear this dress every. single. day.

More embroidery, on a flattering boat neck gauze dress.

Told you tassels were a thing!  J.Crew's take on the trend...

More navy, and the most fun, fruity graphic!

Pretty medallion print, perfect for summer festivities.  And lots of airy linen sweaters for chilly nights.

People don't generally associate burgundy (or oxblood, for that matter) with summer, but it is so fresh paired with navy and white.  Love!  And let's start embracing the bandanna...cause it's here!  Taking the place of heavy jewelry pieces, and adding color.

Love the embroidery...and my favorite sandals!

Embroidery.  It's a thing.  Enough said.

White jewels are back!  Gorgeous against bright color, or glowy skin.  Even better added to white on white!

This cuff is stunning!  The white stone spikes...amazing!

These pieces feel vaguely reminiscent of the brand's most recent collaboration, with Maine-made, The Ropes bracelets.  I guess these would be the glam sister to the brightly woven additions to any outfit.

A lot of vintage appeal in the newest jewelry collection, and a large selection of brand new baubles.

More white...on classic tortoise.  These earrings are seriously major!  Massive statement...gorg!

A closer view of the tassels.

And, lastly, my favorite, little, adorable family!  Never bored will exist in numbers in my house...everybody's gettin one!  The cutest dress ever, for you're little minis.  And the perfect skirt silhouette, continued, in a pretty matelasse.

And because, again, it is chock full of adorableness...the minis get their own post Monday.

Come check it out!

Happy July!
